To debug the systemd-resolved service, you can run $ sudo systemctl edit systemd-resolved
and in the editor that is opened, add and save this content: [Service] Environment=SYSTEMD_LOG_LEVEL=debug then restart systemd-resolved, or reboot. Then once the problem happens again, check: $ journalctl -b -u systemd-resolved to see if there are any problems logged. You can check the current log also, as it may have logged some problems even without debugging enabled, although to check the logs for previous boots you should leave the -b parameter off. If any problem was logged you can paste that part of the log here, or just attach the full log. ** Changed in: systemd (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to systemd in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1890903 Title: systemd-resolved.service still breaks (now 20.04, since as least 16) Status in systemd package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: There are still occurrences of this service breaking down. At some moment the service just stops working correctly and is not able to recover. I can reset the service by restarting it: systemctl restart systemd-resolved.service I've also tried to set the caching off, but it still fails on me occasionally (on 18.04 as well). There is a local DNS in the network, I would like to directly use that in stead of: nameserver 127.0.0.53 Example: geus@desk-02:~$ ssh smb-01 ssh: Could not resolve hostname smb-01: Temporary failure in name resolution ... root@desk-02:/home/geus# systemctl restart systemd-resolved.service root@desk-02:/home/geus# nslookup smb-01 Server: 127.0.0.53 Address: 127.0.0.53#53 Non-authoritative answer: Name: smb-01.lan Address: 192.168.178.39 ... geus@desk-02:~$ ssh smb-01 geus@smb-01's password: ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 20.04 Package: systemd 245.4-4ubuntu3.2 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 5.4.0-42.46-generic 5.4.44 Uname: Linux 5.4.0-42-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.20.11-0ubuntu27.6 Architecture: amd64 CasperMD5CheckResult: skip CurrentDesktop: GNOME Date: Sat Aug 8 17:03:50 2020 InstallationDate: Installed on 2020-05-31 (69 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 20.04 LTS "Focal Fossa" - Release amd64 (20200423) Lsusb: Bus 001 Device 002: ID 0627:0001 Adomax Technology Co., Ltd QEMU USB Tablet Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub Bus 004 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub Bus 003 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub Lsusb-t: /: Bus 04.Port 1: Dev 1, Class=root_hub, Driver=uhci_hcd/2p, 12M /: Bus 03.Port 1: Dev 1, Class=root_hub, Driver=uhci_hcd/2p, 12M /: Bus 02.Port 1: Dev 1, Class=root_hub, Driver=uhci_hcd/2p, 12M /: Bus 01.Port 1: Dev 1, Class=root_hub, Driver=ehci-pci/6p, 480M |__ Port 1: Dev 2, If 0, Class=Human Interface Device, Driver=usbhid, 480M MachineType: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996) ProcKernelCmdLine: BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-5.4.0-42-generic root=/dev/mapper/vgubuntu-root ro quiet splash vt.handoff=7 SourcePackage: systemd SystemdDelta: [EXTENDED] /usr/lib/systemd/system/rc-local.service → /usr/lib/systemd/system/rc-local.service.d/debian.conf [EXTENDED] /usr/lib/systemd/system/user@.service → /usr/lib/systemd/system/user@.service.d/timeout.conf 2 overridden configuration files found.
